It is our Neocortex, the thinking part of our brain, which is most developed and in size - compared to overall brain size in other species - in humans.
Higher IQ correlates with bigger Neocortex and hence with being a coping, high inhibition, bluepiller.
It is the origin of all coping mechanisms and high inhibition.

Nonetheless it is also referred to as the largest coping part of our brain:

First looksmaxing rule should be reducing your Neocortex size.

The neocortex (Latin for "new bark" or "new rind"), also called the neopallium ("new mantle") and isocortex ("equal rind"), is a part of the mammalian brain. In humans, the neocortex is involved in higher functions such as sensory perception, generation of motor commands, spatial reasoning, conscious thought and language.

Not only is neocortex by far our largest coping brain, it is the center for learning and using self-management skills. It enables us to judge and plan what type of coping response we use when we are upset, stressed and hurting inside. Neocortex uses words to name our experiences so we can gain control over the non-verbal instinctive coping brain elements. To learn as well as use healthy coping skills we must first understand how to use our thinking brain’s ability for problem-solving.
Every time we are challenged by new or upsetting experiences our brain must come up with ways to deal with our stress or worry.
- Sometimes our brain needs to find better ways to deal with our upsets because the old ways don't work anymore.
- We need all three coping brain functions, thinking, feeling and self-protection, to get over experiences that make us stressed, worried, angry or upset
Training our brain to use health coping methods means we can heal our own emotional wounds so we also feel better about ourselves
